The Adamant throwing axe, like all throwing axes, are member's onlyRanged throwing weapons. To wield them players must have at least 40 Ranged. They can be wielded with a shield for protection or with an off-hand ranged weapon for extra damage.

They can be smithed at level 77 Smithing from one adamant bar, which makes five throwing axes. Alternatively, players may buy them from the Tribal Weapons store at the Ranging Guild, or trade with another player to obtain them.
Most throwing axes (with the exception of Morrigan's) are considered relatively useless due to their slow attack speed, although they can deal considerable damage to make up for this.
